Answer 1

1.  Yes they are endoparasites meaning that they inhabit inside the intestine.  Organisms it could be preyed on could be humans, cows, pigs, etc.

2.  They are specially adapted to their environment in that they have specially adapted hooks which latch on the host intestine and infect it.  

3.  Muscular contractions in the gut cause a strong sucking force which allows it to ingest food.
